Cicinho's serious injury last week made Fabio Capello look for solutions. As far as the doctors are concerned, Cicinho will miss more than 6 months from the pitch and the Italian coach has to find another solution for a right winger in his squad.

According to UEFA regulations, Real Madrid is allowed to transfer a new player, but only from their domestic championship. Although Fabio Capello stated that: "there are plenty of good players throughout the world that I like and may play for us",
Madrid's searching area will have to be focalized only on the Spanish League.

As for the player, the Brazilian admitted that he was devastated by the news. "When I found out the doctors' verdict, I was very sad. I knew I'll have to work hard to get back into shape. Still, after I talked to may family, I understood that these things happen in football quite often. I have no other choice but to wait. I am ready for anything", said Cicinho.

He added: "I hope the club officials will understand me and agree that I continue my recuperation in Brazil. I would like to stay in Sao Paolo during that whole period of time. But it's up to Mr Calderon if I'll go or not. I also want to thank the president and Predrag Mijatovic for all their support. I'll try to come back as soon as possible".

Still, there isn't only bad news for Fabio Capello. The Italian included Ronaldo in the squad for the Dynamo Kiev match and may play him alongside Ruud Van Nistalrooy tonight. The Brazilian ended his recuperation and is ready to start his promised goal-scoring campaign at Bernabeu.

Real Madrid shamefully lost their Champions League opener 2 weeks ago, when being beaten by Olympique Lyon 2-0 in France. The Spanish side failed to shoot once on target, while the Frenchmen had other great scoring chances along the way. Dynamo Kiev - their tonight opponents - also lost their opening match in Kiev, 1-4 against Steaua Bucharest.
